[00:05.00]You people can watch while Im scrubbing these floors
[00:07.62]And Im scrubbin the floors while youre gawking
[00:10.04]
[00:11.67]Maybe once ya tip me and it makes ya feel swell
[00:14.80]In this crummy southern town
[00:16.55]In this crummy old hotel
[00:17.72]
[00:18.54]But youll never guess to who youre talkin.
[00:20.72]
[00:22.03]No. you couldnt ever guess to who youre talkin.
[00:27.41]
[00:30.89]Then one night theres a scream in the night
[00:34.95]And youll wonder who could that have been
[00:37.82]
[00:40.00]And you see me kinda grinnin while Im scrubbin
[00:43.86]
[00:44.93]And you say, whats she got to grin?

[00:50.73]
[00:53.23]Theres a ship
[00:56.78]
[00:58.97]The black freighter
[01:00.65]
[01:02.84]With a skull on its masthead
[01:07.27]Will be coming in
[01:09.52]
[01:15.45]You gentlemen can say, hey gal, finish them floors!
[01:18.82]Get upstairs! whats wrong with you! earn your keep here!
[01:21.74]
[01:22.50]You toss me your tips
[01:24.11]And look out to the ships
[01:25.80]But Im counting your heads
[01:27.92]As Im making the beds
[01:29.67]Cuz theres nobody gonna sleep here, honey
[01:32.98]Nobody
[01:35.16]Nobody!
[01:35.78]Then one night theres a scream in the night
[01:52.07]And you say, whos that kicking up a row?
[01:55.38]
[01:56.75]And ya see me kinda starin out the winda
[02:01.06]And you say, whats she got to stare at now?
[02:06.92]
[02:08.11]Ill tell ya.
[02:09.30]
[02:10.92]Theres a ship
[02:14.92]
[02:17.48]The black freighter
[02:21.52]
[02:22.15]Turns around in the harbor
[02:27.52]Shootin guns from her bow
[02:30.70]
[02:35.82]Now
[02:36.88]You gentlemen can wipe off that smile off your face
[02:40.37]Cause every building in town is a flat one
[02:43.05]
[02:43.55]This whole frickin place will be down to the ground
[02:47.36]Only this cheap hotel standing up safe and sound
[02:51.16]And you yell, why do they spare that one?
[02:54.28]
[02:54.85]Yes.
[02:56.10]Thats what you say.
[02:57.09]
[02:57.91]Why do they spare that one?
[02:59.52]
[03:00.96]All the night through, through the noise and to-do
[03:09.94]You wonder who is that person that lives up there?
[03:14.01]
[03:15.19]And you see me stepping out in the morning
[03:19.13]
[03:19.93]Looking nice with a ribbon in my hair
[03:25.74]
[03:27.54]And the ship
[03:35.63]
[03:37.37]The black freighter
[03:39.87]
[03:42.06]Runs a flag up its masthead
[03:45.61]And a cheer rings the air
[03:47.42]
[03:54.03]By noontime the dock
[03:56.97]Is a-swarmin with men
[03:59.15]Comin out from the ghostly freighter
[04:03.33]They move in the shadows
[04:06.14]Where no one can see
[04:08.07]And theyre chainin up people
[04:09.88]
[04:10.44]And theyre bringin em to me
[04:12.69]Askin me,
[04:14.13]Kill them now, or later?
[04:16.06]
[04:17.56]Askin me!
[04:18.50]
[04:21.00]Kill them now, or later?
[04:24.79]
[04:28.36]Noon by the clock
[04:32.04]
[04:33.85]And so still by the dock
[04:37.34]
[04:39.46]You can hear a foghorn miles away
[04:46.51]
[04:51.38]And in that quiet of death
[04:55.37]
[04:56.56]Ill say, right now.
[05:01.68]
[05:04.11]Right now!
[05:06.11]
[05:13.57]Then theyll pile up the bodies
[05:16.31]
[05:20.24]And Ill say,
[05:21.67]Thatll learn ya!
[05:24.05]And the ship
[05:35.84]
[05:38.46]The black freighter
[05:46.39]
[05:48.75]Disappears out to sea
[05:59.93]
[06:02.67]And
[06:05.17]On
[06:07.04]It
[06:08.10]
[06:10.97]Is
[06:12.72]Me
